SUMMARY
If I search for `:tongue`, I expect `:stuck_out_tongue:` to show up but it doesn't. I have to actually type `:stuck` (or more) to find the emoji. The search needs to be fuzzy rather than strict.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Type :tongue when sending a message

OBSERVED RESULT
The emoji :stuck_out_tongue: should be found.

EXPECTED RESULT
It's not found, your query has to be an exact match from the start.
